The stage starts from the Karst village of Lokvica crossing the Open-air Museum of the Pečinka Cave, passing by the military road leading to Kostanjevica na Krasu, skirting the IR 43 marker and Boroević's throne as well as the remains of the Segeti military camp and many other commemorative plaques and monuments until reaching the village where it overlaps and partly skirts the remains of the old Austro-Hungarian supply railway. From Kostanjevica, it proceeds towards Teminica and the hamlet of Lipa. From Lipa, it continues towards Sveto, encountering various military cemeteries testament to the different national compositions within the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The last stretch, a couple of kilometers, leads into the village of Komen.
